Semantic place recognition for context aware services
2012
Extracting the meaning of the most significant places, which are frequently visited by a mobile user, is a relevant problem in mobile computing. Predicting semantic meaning of such places is useful in many areas. The problem of place semantic annotation of a user location can be challenging for service providers. Awareness of user activities is very important for development of personalized applications, which can be used in health care systems, living systems, etc. Predicting location of mobile users not only enables development of high quality location-based services and applications, but also improves resource reservation in wireless networks. In this research several solutions for seman…
Unités phraséologiques au pays de la traduction: transfert des collocations nomino-adjectivales avec le lexème «femme» dans la traduction de la litté…
2022
The present paper examines the transfer of nomino-adjectival collocations based on the word ‘femme’ (‘woman’) in the literary translation from French into Italian and Polish. The lexical connection analysed in the article can be defined as the habitual juxtaposition of a word with another word (or words) that has a significant frequency in a given language. The research corpus comprises seven Michel Houellebecq’s novels written originally in French and their Italian and Polish versions. The theoretical part of the paper aims to present phraseotranslation and phraseotraductol-ogy, which are the new subbranches in phraseology. Then, the empirical part proposes the analysis of techniques used …
Vārdu savienojumu variācijas angļu valodas variantu tīmekļa korpusos
2020
Kopš pasaulē internets ir kļuvis aizvien pieejamāks, palielinājusies arī saziņa starp cilvēkiem visā pasaulē. Šāda informācijas apmaiņa var izraisīt globalizācijas efektu valodās vai valodu variantos, it īpaši valstiskajā līmenī. Neraugoties uz to, dažādi pētnieki ir analizējuši dažādās pasaules valstīs lietotās angļu valodas variāciju atšķirības, nevis līdzības. Tādējādi šā, uz korpusu balstītā pētījuma mērķis ir analizēt kolokācijas, pamatojoties uz izvēlēto lietvārdu sarakstu, kas veidots, izmantojot četras nacionālās angļu valodas variantus – amerikāņu, austrāliešu, britu un kanādiešu. Analīze tika veikta divos korpusos – Corpus of Global Web-Based English (GloWbE) un Corpus of Four Nat…

Kollokationsfehler als zentrales Übersetzungsproblem bei angehenden Übersetzern
2017
In the opinion of many translation scholars, when evaluating the quality of the translation it is essential to distinguish between language errors and translation errors, wherein translational errors should have a decisive impact on the assessment of the translation. The article shows that the mentioned dichotomy has by no means a strict character, but rather there are smooth boundaries and differences in the perception of what translational errors are. And so the analysis of collocation errors in translations of trainee certified translators allows us to say, that contrary to the usual treatment for language errors due to the complex nature of the failures in terms of collocation, they oft…
Akadēmisko un vispārīgo vārdu biežuma salīdzinājums, izmantojot angļu valodas korpusus
2015
Bakalaura darba tēma veltīta korpusu lingvistikas jomas pētniecībai, lai veiktu biežāk lietoto vārdu salīdzināšanu akadēmiskajā un vispārējā angļu valodā ar teksta korpusu palīdzību. Izvēlētās tēmas aktualitāti nosaka valodniecības un moderno tehnoloģiju mijiedarbība, kā arī nepieciešamība izprast, kā tiek lietota un attīstās valoda. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir analizēt teorētisko literatūru par korpusu lingvistiku, kā arī atšķirības starp akadēmiskās un vispārējās angļu valodas pielietojumu. Pētījuma metodoloģija balstīta uz akadēmiskajā studijām un empīrisku pieeju pētījumam. Pētījuma dati iegūti, izmantojot atbilstošu programmatūru, kā arī analizējot biežāk sastopamos vārdus teksta korpuso…
Colour Terms in Five Linguistic Images of the World: The Semantic Perspective
2022
Social and cultural factors shape the linguistic perception of colour. At the same time, colour terms co-create the linguistic image of the world, which allows us to interpret reality and profile our statements and beliefs. This paper presents six basic colour terms: white, black, red, green, yellow, and blue (both as adjectives and as nouns) in the five different linguistic images of the world of the following languages: English, French, Italian, Polish, and Japanese. The methodological framework is based on cultural linguistics theory and the basis of semantics. The study explores denotative and connotative meanings of colour terms with their collocations. The data gathered from monolingu…
Exposing ecological and economic costs of the research-implementation gap and compromises in decision making
2018
The frequently discussed gap between conservation science and practice is manifest in the gap between spatial conservation prioritization plans and their implementation. We analyzed the research-implementation gap of one zoning case by comparing results of a spatial prioritization analysis aimed at avoiding ecological impact of peat mining in a regional zoning process with the final zoning plan. We examined the relatively complex planning process to determine the gaps among research, zoning, and decision making. We quantified the ecological costs of the differing trade-offs between ecological and socioeconomic factors included in the different zoning suggestions by comparing the landscape-l…
Consommer « l’usage », un nouveau mode de consommation en période de crise ?
2013
De nouvelles pratiques de consommation changent nos habitudes telles l’auto partage et le covoiturage. Des offres de biens en partage fleurissent dans les villes : Vélib’, Autolib’, les services de location de matériels de bricolage... L’intérêt pédagogique et écologique de développer ainsi des formes de consommation alternatives à la possession du bien (Meijkamp, 1998) interpellent les individus. Consommer l’usage suppose de partager le bien à plusieurs et d’accepter de se dégager de la matérialité au profit de la fonctionnalité. Louer ou acheter ? En période de crise, qu’en pense le consommateur ?
